Forecasts

Shemozzle (4/1), Bulmer Bank (9/2), Treasure Time (9/2), Colorada Dancer (9/2), Native King (17/2), Operate (17/2), Juantorena (10/1), Swift Salian (10/1), Asteverdi (10/1), Mai Dubai (12/1), Swordplay (14/1), East Bank (14/1), Close Connection (18/1)

Verdict

BULMER BANK ran well when third from off a strong pace at York 3 weeks ago and gets the vote from the same mark with a similar scenario likely to unfold here. Treasure Time is a likely improver now handicapping and is a danger, while Native King is also interesting now pitched into a handicap by his new local trainer.

  1. BULMER BANK
  2. TREASURE TIME
  3. NATIVE KING
